Overview
Epidemiology and Demographics
Incidence
- The incidence and prevalence of aspiration pneumonia are underestimated. It is mostly because of similarities between pneumonias from different causes and lack of specific marker to distinguish them from each other.[1]
- The incidence/prevalence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
- In [year], the incidence/prevalence of [disease name] was estimated to be [number range] cases per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
Prevalence
- The incidence/prevalence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals worldwide.
- The prevalence of aspiration pneumonia is estimated to be 5% to 15% of all pneumonias in the hospitalized population.[2]
- The prevalence of aspiration pneumonia is approximately 5,000 to 15,000 per 100,000 individuals admitted in the hospital due to community acquired pneumonia.[3]
Case-fatality rate/Mortality rate
- In [year], the incidence of [disease name] is approximately [number range] per 100,000 individuals with a case-fatality rate/mortality rate of [number range]%.
- The mortality rate of aspiration pneumonia is approximately 10.6-21%.[1]
Age
- Patients of all age groups may develop [disease name].
- The incidence of [disease name] increases with age; the median age at diagnosis is [#] years.
- [Disease name] commonly affects individuals younger than/older than [number of years] years of age.
- [Chronic disease name] is usually first diagnosed among [age group].
- [Acute disease name] commonly affects [age group].
Race
- There is no racial predilection to aspiration pneumonia.
Gender
- Males are more commonly affected by aspiration than females.[2]
